Swimming is a very popular exercise. Swimming can also strengthen your body, promote good health and help you relax from the stresses that you have faced all day.
Swimming is a low impact exercise. Because water offers 10 times more resistance than air, swimming is also very effective at burning fat and produces worthwhile health results, including a healthier heart. Swimming promotes heavy and rapid breathing, leading to effective heart pumping and circulation. In addition, swimming promotes muscle firmness and strength, making the core, shoulder, thigh and back muscles stronger.
